Fresh OMV install: SMB is read-only, WinSCP/SFTP login denied, ACL recursive checkbox not saving

Hi, I’m having multiple permission issues on a fresh OpenMediaVault install (running in a Proxmox VM) and I’m not sure if they’re connected.

Setup

  • Fresh OMV install in Proxmox VM
  • Data disk mounted correctly
  • Filesystem: EXT4
  • Shared folders created on /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-...
  • SMB enabled
  • User (julius) has Read/Write privileges and is in users + sambashare

Problems

1. SMB is basically read-only
I can access the shares from my iPhone Files app and see folders, but I can’t:

  • upload files
  • create folders
  • write anything inside shares

2. WinSCP/SFTP login denied
SSH is enabled, but WinSCP says:

>

Using:

  • SFTP
  • Port 22
  • correct username/password

3. ACL recursive setting won’t save
In Storage → Shared Folders → ACL, owner changes save, but the “apply recursively” checkbox never sticks and no yellow “Apply changes” button appears.

I already checked:

  • EXT4 (not NTFS)
  • mounted drive
  • shared folder privileges
  • SSH enabled
  • username/password

Could this be a permissions/ACL problem, SSH config issue, or an OMV bug? Any ideas what to check next?
